FRESH CRANBERRY SAUCE
A great side dish for Thanksgiving dinner. It can be used as filling for cranberry/cream cheese tarts and also makes a great topping on bagels, corn bread, or cheesecake. Pour into a serving dish or jars and cover. The pectin in the cranberries will make the cranberry sauce gel as it cools. I usually use a fork to mix it up which will make it more pliable.

Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and more pectin than frozen cranberries, which results in a thicker, more flavorful sauce.
- Cook the sauce slowly: Cooking the sauce slowly over low heat allows the flavors to develop and deepen.
- Add sugar to taste: The amount of sugar you add to the sauce will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Use a variety of spices: Experiment with different spices to create a unique flavor profile for your sauce. Some popular choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- Let the sauce cool before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken.
Conclusion:
Fresh cranberry sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed with a variety of dishes. It is a popular choice for Thanksgiving dinner, but it can also be served with other meals throughout the year.
